Summary

Castleton Academy High School Of Oceanside is a small public high school in Oceanside, New York, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of just 34 students. While the school's small size may offer some advantages, it faces several challenges compared to nearby high schools in the Oceanside Union Free School District.

Castleton Academy's proficiency rates on Regents/Common Core exams are generally lower than the district and state averages, with only 25% of students proficient in Algebra I compared to 84.36% in the district and 56.07% statewide. The school also has much higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 34.1% in recent years, compared to 0.7% to 8% in the district. Additionally, Castleton Academy's four-year graduation rates, while still relatively high, are lower than the district average, ranging from 80.9% to 94.5% compared to 84.3% to 92.4% in the district.

Despite these challenges, Castleton Academy stands out in some areas. The school spends significantly more per student, ranging from $39,989 to $74,590 per year, compared to $32,121 in the district. Additionally, the school's female students and special education students perform significantly better than their male and general education counterparts, with female students ranking 3rd out of 1,193 New York high schools in 2018-2019. However, the school's overall performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking and Oceanside Union Free School District rating fluctuating between 1 and 3 stars and ranking between 613th and 972nd out of over 1,200 New York high schools.
